THE SIX PRINCIPLES

"As institutional investors, we have a duty to act in the best long-term interests of our beneficiaries. In this fiduciary role, we believe that environmental, social,
and corporate governance (ESG) issues can affect the performance of investment portfolios (to varying degrees across companies, sectors, regions, asset classes and through time).

We also recognise that applying these Principles may better align investors
with broader objectives of society.

ESG Investing

ESG Investing is a term that is often used synonymously with sustainable investing, socially responsible investing, mission-related investing, or screening. At MSCI ESG Research we
define it as the consideration of environmental, social and governance factors alongside financial factors in the investment decision-making process.

Total Social Impact

For decades, most companies have oriented their strategies toward maximizing total shareholder return (TSR). This focus, the thinking has
been, creates high-performing companies that produce the goods and services society needs and that power economic growth around the world. According to this view, explicit efforts to address societal challenges, including those created by corporate activity,
are best left to government and NGOs.

Sustainability is
one of those ubiquitous words, which can also be very slippery, as different people understand the word differently.

At a planetary level, sustainability is meeting the needs of the present generation without compromising the ability
of future generations to meet their needs (Brundtland - 1987); and how 9-10 billion people can live reasonably well within the constraints of one planet by mid-century (WBCSD 2010).

The Happy CFO’s recipe is simple and, at the same time, very challenging: «Our companies will continue to be profitable and generate work for our great-grandchildren, if the CFOs convince their CEOs that short term orientation, not balanced with objectives of environmental and social sustainability, will not last long.». Like in the Movies, “a happy ending”; a Happy CFO.
